Proverbs 27:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that leaveth his place.

⁹ Ointment and perfumes rejoice the heart: and the good counsels of a friend are sweet to the soul.

¹⁰ Thy own friend, and thy father's friend forsake not: and go not into thy brother's house in the day of thy affliction. Better is a neighbour that is near, than a brother afar off.
